First Day of School (sort of)

Today was another first for Izzy. She went to school for the day (sort of that is). She went to Chet Academy (where home schoolers and their parents go twice a week for combined classes) with Aunt Becky. Becky and Jody watch the young children and babies and get to love on them all day. Since Becky normally watches Izzy at home while we work/sleep, she got to go to school today as it was Moriah & Becky's 1st day back to Chet.
I worked my first night shift last night (which went well), I got off at 7, rushed home to hold Izzy for a few minutes and see her off to school. I tried not to cry, but couldn't help myself...Izzy is growing up so fast and the tears came anyways. It didn't help that I had been up for over 24 hours and had not gotten to see Robert that morning.
So now Izzy is going to school 1-2 days a week!! She had a blast with all the kids and lots of extra attention, of course\. She seems to like all the 2 and 3 year old boys the most. She was not shy at all and tried to take everyones toys - (hopefully she will start learning what sharing means!) She also ate all the food and snacks we sent for her along with munching off everyone else's' food (and 2 boys sippy cups). She seemed very happy when I went to get her which was a huge relief to me. Her only nap was 45 minutes long, go figure. Little miss soical-bug knows when there are things to do and people to see, and unless she is home, she naps half her usual amount or less. Chet was a very busy place and Izzy seems to really enjoy going there. For that I am thankful!
I was very happy to see her smiling face - even overnight, I miss seeing her face and watching her play. Izzy is such a happy girl, and when she's around you cannot help but smile. It's wonderful!

Labor Day Weekend 2010

Another busy weekend has come and gone. It feels like we did so much with our family this weekend, but really we were all able to relax some and enjoy hanging out and playing with Izzy for the weekend. I'm thankful for the extra time with everyone. I just wish we had one more day off to do nothing now! Here are a few pictures to recap the weekend. Grammy made homemade blueberry pancakes while Izzy and Grandpa supervised (and taste-tested) YUM!! I'm pretty sure she said Yum a lot this weekend! Izzy showing Grammy how much she loves to take off and run outside She is growing up too fast - but still cuter than ever! Excited that Cheree and Daniel came too Learning all about Mac Books from Uncle D Laughing when Grandpa makes animal noises, another favorite for Izzy Ahhh ...my daily scene of frustration - wish she would listen to us and NOT stand on chairs every chance she gets...but naturally standing is always more fun than sitting for this daredevil, so we're working on that...

Closer than ever

It was soooooo good to see my brother and sister. I'm glad they will get to see Izzy more too! There is so much to her personality and abilities, it is just too hard to describe her over the phone! Yesterday was a very cool day for me - I got to hang out with my brother, sister and brother in law too... hanging out might not sound like a big deal, but to us, it is exciting because for the first time in a long time - at least 7 years the 3 Voyles siblings all live in the same state. Not just that, but we are only 2 hours away from each other. We have been 10 hours apart for the last 4 years...which meant only visiting each other 3 or 4 times a year - 3 or 4 RUSHED visits is hectic and not enough time together for us. Now with Cheree and Daniel in Chattanooga and we're in Nashville (so is Mark), we're all going to be able to see each other much more often, allowing us days to just "hang out" like we used to. I literally called Cheree and Daniel on Thursday to ask so...
